x800 or X850 for AGP platform ?

[imported_BadDog]

Can someone please assist me in choosing an ATI AGP card:

X800 Pro
X800XT
X800 XT Platinum
X800xl
X850XT
X850XT Platinum

The card will be paired with Athlon 3500+ Winchester and an MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum.
The x850XT appears to be the obvious choice (ie. more $$ = better)
Can someone please explain the difference between these cards and if it is worth the stretch for the 850XT?

Thanks in Advance!

Check this out for $353 shipped: X800XL AIW AGP

A couple of guys at Rage3d have discovered that this card is actually a downclocked X800XT AIW. They have both overclocked beyond the XT's stock speeds. This deal was too good for me to pass up.

I believe the X850 series is currently PCIe only.

Get an AGP X800, whack an ATI Silencer rev 3 on it, overclock it and theres your x850.
